We arrived at Marzamemi and contacted Pino (very easy to do via mobile, text or email) to say we were here slightly earlier and if apartment was free before 4pm could he contact us. We sat down to lunch overlooking the harbour and Pino contacted us to say it was ready. We arranged to meet an hour later (allowing us to finish lunch & walk to apartment). On arrival we were greeted and so touched to find a Happy Wedding and bottle of Prosecco, large melon & looking up an amazing view.
The apartment was as described and walking distance to the square. It truly is a magical place. We enjoyed eating out and also eating in the apartment, with a glass of wine on the balcony overlooking the sea.
On the day we'd been married a week, we were sat in the square eating and spotted a wedding was due to take place at the local church. When the bride arrived we got to see her and more amazing her enterance song was the same as mine. A truly romantic & magical moment for us.
There is a shop selling milk, a selection of hams, salami, cheeses and olives. Absolutely fantastic. The owner apologised for not speaking English, but we apologised in italian for not speaking good enough Italian. Everyone we met was very helpful and kind.
I would recommend hiring a car. Parking is available in a little square, but we found parking at the end of the road easy to get in / out of spaces.
Guilia the owner has been fantastic since contacting last year. With advice and it's been much appreciated.
We could go on talking about the apartment, place and surrounding areas for ages, but, we think it's better to say ... Go and you will not be disappointed and like us will be going back again.
Thank you 😁
